Thank You World

I wanna thank you world
For lettin' me belong
I'm just one fourth of one small group that
Sings your songs
I know that there are others who have
Served in bigger ways
All I can do is sing your music all my days

It makes me grateful just to know
To know that I can be
Unique and fill the spot
Beside the other three
Without a place here in this world
I know that I'd be lost
Thank you world for lettin' me
Contribute to the cause

I may not ever stand
Like Stonewall Jackson stood
But standing on that stage
To me is just as good
And I may never be
A heavy or a great
But you've given me the strength
The strength to pull my weight

Oh for the part I sing
Is truly part of me
And it does its part to lock
The other parts in key
And it does its part to pull
To pull that sweet applause
Thank you world for lettin' me
Contribute to the cause

Oh world you've given me
A place that I call mine
Though I've stepped out of it
And I've gotten out of line
Sometimes I sing your music
Slightly out of key
And I know I make it harder
For the other three

Oh I've always done my part
The very best I could
And it's done the other guys
A world of good
You've let me sing your praises world
And harp about your faults
I thank you world for letting me
Contribute to the cause

It makes me grateful just to know
To know that I can be
Unique and fill the spot
Beside the other three
Without a place here in this world
I know that I'd be lost
Thank you world for lettin' me
Contribute to the cause

Without a place here in this world
I know that I'd be lost
Thank you world for lettin' me
